The fall of rain at mid-night of Monday was excessive, producing an unusual current in our river during Tuesday. Mr. Dwight Hubbard, formerly a citizen of Bellevue, died of paralysis, on Saturday last, in Pittsfteld, Massachusetts. Fulton County Court of Common Pleas com menced on Tuesday, with the largest docket remembered for many years. The Friends in Tan Wert are making an effort to raise a sum sufficient to build a church and have been quite sucessfal. ' Mrs. Barbara Bobbins, of Plymouth, aged 62 years, dropped dead while lighting the fire in a stove, on Wednesday of last week. The price of coal at Festoria is now $3.25 per ton. It is about time that the price of coal in this latitude was beii.g reduoed. Croghan Street, in the vicinity of the Depot , being subject to excessive travel during the past wet season, is in a fearful condition. Port Clinton is to have a bank. J. H. Mo Grader, Esq, his son Samuel and John P. Graves, will be the principal stockholders. And still the Wood county seat question is unsettled, and Timmons and the Rudolph brothers are after each others scalps: If yon want good trees, bny of Muchmoro Ton can buy of him much more satisfactorily than yon can of agents. He is not a "middle Andrew Johnson, on tho East Side, was made supremely happy on Sunday last by an other welcome visitor in his household it was a boy, Saturday last was a poor day for business in Fremont. Our tradesmen can scarcely remember so scant an attendance of farmers at onr market. uno xl. .amn, m printer woo naa oeeu at work in the Advertiser office, Tiffin, was ta ken with tvphoid fever a few weeks ago. and died last week. A man named Steambarge and a Miss Crnm were united in wedlock at Liberty Cen ter, recently. Little propellers are the next thing in order. Said a reporter of a Milwaukee paper, "The lilacs are budding," and a reader responded Tou lilac Satan," which remark is taken to be offensively personal. The whereabouts of the Richland County Treasurer, who stole the funds and decamped, is still a mystery. He hides his person as well as he hid the funds. Portions of the business premises of Charley Klnssman and Justus Oehm of Bellevue, were on the 16th seriously injured by tire, but the loss was covered by insurance. It is believed that the Bev. J. W. White of Boonesbro', Iowa, will accept a unanimous call from the Congregational Church, Belle vue. They are to pay him $1,200 per year and $100 for removing expenses. - During the year 1873 there were drank 26, 528 gallons of beer in Plymouth, or an aver age of 72 1-2 gallons each day. Plymouth must have some "dry customers." ' The store of Rogers A Manville, at Bowling Green was entered by burglars on the night of the 14th, who abstracted about five dollars in nickles from the money drawer. Alwilda Wood, the paramour of the man Griee, was arrested in Missouri last week by Sheriff Henry of Hancock county, and brought to Findlay to be present at his trial. G. W. Miller, pastor of the Lutheran church of Findlay, had a donation visit from his con gregati n, on the 13th inst, and his stock of worldly goods was thereby increased. A "young man from the country" brought in word from his father to one of our store keepers, on Monday, that "he could not send him in any money this week as the roads were so bad. Two boys aged 12 and 15 years, were ar rested in Tiffin last week, for attempting to rob Keilholtz grocery store. One was sen tenced to sixty and the other to fifteen days imprisonment. Fayette Thompson, John Bunker and Uary A. Stephens, of Lorain county, will be careful about adulterating milk hereafter. A judge in Elyria fined them $25 each, with ten days imprisonment, recently. Marshal Henneeey, of Tiffin, was badly abused by some rowdies, on Thursday night last. They escaped but subsequently two of the party were arrested, named Connors and Sullivan, and fined $20 each. Thempson Blue, near Deshler, Wood coun ty, had $400 stolen from his residence last week, Robert Knowles proved to be the one who took the money. He was caught in To ledo, and part of the money recovered. The Carey Timet acknowledges receiving from one Jesse Herndon a present of a nice lot of green vegetables. We congratulate our contemporary on indulging the"nrst fruit," if they were vegetables with a somewhat "fishy" flavor. Burglars entered the- residence of Eli Ba gaa and J. W. Porviancc of Upper Sandusky, last week. They took a watch and some money from the foruer, but Mr. Purviance made it lively for the strangers, who beat a hasty retreat. Twenty-two thousand pounds of cattle pass ing over an iron bridge at Bloffton, on the 13th, occasioned the bridge to go down in the center. Beef is usually regared as a support lor the conter, but this case was an exception to the general rule. An Episcopal church is Jalked of for Port Clinton. O. J. True, of that place, and Mrs. Hines, of Cincinnati, have each donated two lots for building purposes . It is proposed to have one pastor serve Port Clinton and Ten ice, at a salary of $1,000. Don't buy "tip top" wood. The Lima Ga zette has tried it, and as the seller threw off a gnarled and knotty limb, he remarked "those wood was the tip-topest he could find;" and now Brother Parmentar is about to graduate in the "highest branches" of cussin'. Madison Andrews, of Bucyrus, was over--cotie by foul air in a well 35 feet deep, on the 20th: Hopley, cf the Journal was lowered hut was also overcome before be could attach a rope to the man. A man named Rodger, fter making the second attempt succeeded. by he D. in out by of E. L of of a E. L. M. his his the James Fhck.living near TiiBnttomptod to get on a train on the B. P. & C. R. R, at Deshler, on the 10th, but fell and was run over by the train. He died a few hours after and his body was taken to Tiffin and deliver ed to his friends. An attempt was made by a thief to steal a horse and buggy from J. M. Nayler, of limn, on the night of the 14th, but a prompt discov ery and active pursuit made him abandon his purpose ere he had proceeded very far on his journey. He made his escape. The Union City Timet speaks encouraging ly of the prospects of an extention of the L. E. & L. By. from St. Marys to that place, the coming Spring. Canvassers will be sent out upon the line next month, with the view of raising a sufficient sum to prepare the road bed. " The Messenger is so far. "converted from the error of its ways"that it now thinks the en gine should be located on the hill, near the Court House. Does it snuff the sentiment of the people afar off? Better admit that the people on the hill only demand what they are entitled to, an.d should have. If a farmer buy a right of R. R. Tenner fc Co., of Urbane, Illinois, to manufacture or nse a certain subsoil plow, let him beware how he puts his hand to it not the plow but the contract, for the contract has been known to turn in to a note for a certain sum of mon ey. So says the Urbana Citizen. The rnsidence of Rev. J. H. Sedge wick, at Defiance, took fire on the evening of the 12th and was damaged to the extent of several hun dred dollars; insured. About $200 worth of his personal effects were desroyed, and a sub scription paper was started, aad a liberal amount secured to repair the loss. Oar fanner friends are warned against be ing done for by a fellow who is going around selling "six pounds of coffee for a dollar." He always takes the money in advance, but so for the grangers who ordered through him have not been able to give an opinion as to the quality of the article,' although numbers of them in Wyandot county mourn over their investment. Henry Morehart was arrested at Mt. Blan chard, recently, by two constables. One of the officers permitted him to ride his horse while he trudged on with the other constable. Soon after Henry slipped from the horse which followed after the officers for sometime before they discovered their bird had flown. He is now thought to be in Nebraska. He had been too intimate with one of the gentler sex. The car works are a source of vexation to the Messenger. Had it possessed the nerve to join the Journal in its opposition to the pre sent location, $10,000 might have been saved the stockholders. At present it is well enough, the works has nothing to do, as contracts could only be obtained upon a very long time, and the working capital left, if all collected in, would not run the concern three months unless better contracts could be obtained than any yet offered. Lewis Rnpp, of Defiance, has a prospect of serving the State, as a high private in the compulsory service. The way it came was on account of a valise containing five dollars worth of clothing and forty dollars in money, which stuck to his fingers until he had an op portunity to cut the valise open and abstract the money. He was followed to Fort Wayne, the owner who procured his arrest, and now Lewis pineth within the confines of the county institute for such cases made and pro vided. An exchange tolls of a man who was pre scribed a good strong glass of "whisky toddy," his feet to be soaked in warm water before go ing to bed, as and unfailing remedy for a cold, He tried it drank his "toddy" while sat with his feet in the water fell asleep, and at 3 A. M. his "better-half" came down stairs to arouse him, broke the ice which had congealed around his legs and he retired. His cold is no better and he pronounces the origi nator of the experiment a fraud. A letter to the Toledo Blade from Monroe, Michigan, explains that a man and woman were married at the Methodist parsonage, in that place, on the 11th, and registered at Strong's hotel as Mr. Mrs. Dusenbury, Oke arbour, (which is as near Oak Harbor, proba bly, as the writer could got,) remained several days, when Mr. D. decamped, leaving Mrs. behind, who said he was editor of a paper Okearbour, and had gone to get his paper and then return for her. He took what mnney she had and left Lis hotel bill unpaid. One of the lady guests gave her enough mon ey to pay her fare home, and she left her watch with the landlord to secure her beard bill. We understand that the "General Bell" boys netted an increase to their funds of nearly $60, their late ball. We call attention to the aeTertisement headed "For Sale at a Bargain." The Messrs. Downs & Co. offer all the land between their mill-race and the river. The meeting of the newly elected directors the Sandusky County Agricultural Society, called for Saturday last, did not convene as a quorum was not present, owing to the storm. The business was postponed until to-day, Friday. Liat of Letters remaining in the Fremont Post-office uncalled for February 26th, 1874: Rev. A. Carr, Frank Dickeson. Wm. Keath, D. Moore, Karl Musals, Mrs. John Moore, Mrs. Jane C.McNutt, Rose B. Mumy, John Moore, John Pasey. Common Fleas Court. The business the court terminated last week with the sentence of prisoners, as follows George Rhinehart to four years in the penetentiary. McKusick and Winfiold each, ten day a im prisonment, on bread and water. The Statement of the Trader's Insurance Company, of Chicago, appears in our columns this week, and is a very favorable one. A company which can do business in these days large and heavy fires, and yet accumulate surplus, is a pretty sure refuge in a storm. Londensleger is agent at this place. We notice among the arrivals at the Ball House, the name of Mr. Frank Krause, of Ann Arbor, Mich., who is engsged . surveying for H. E vert's new county atlas. Mr. K., has several assistants engaged in the surrounding townships, and he, personally commenced the survey for a city map, on Tuesday last. Social Entertainment. The ladies of E. Church, in Fremont, will give a social entertainment in the Church, on Tursday evening, March 5th. Singing under the di rection of Mr. H. Lasher. Select readings by Mr. W. W. Ross. Doors open at 7 P. M.; ex ercises to commence at 8 P .M. AU are cor dially invited to attend. Admission 15c. The City Band favored our citizens with some excellent music on Monday evening, not only on the streets but at the depot. Mr. A. Korbec, a brother-in-law of Geo. Heldt, on way to California had stopped off, to see "the boys," who formed a complimentary es. eort to the depot, and parted with him with best of wishes for his success. Making Him Peaceable. Cornelius Lynch of this city was brought before the Mayor, by Marshal Keller, on Saturday, on a complaint to keep the peace. It appeared that Cornelius is in the habit of losing his temper occasionally and becoming a terror to household. In default of bail he was com mitted to safe "custody to await the sitting of the Probate Court. A Weak Case. On Monday last, before the Mayor, J ohn and Walter Knapp, residing some two miles from the city, on the Riley road, were charged by one John Eddinger, with having stolen a number of chicken, but evidence as to haw the boys came in pos session of the birds was so conflicting the Mayor deemed the case too slender for a com mittal, and thereupon dismissed it Mr. C. N. Deal informs us that during the fair, last year, many persons enquired of him where he obtained the seed from which the vegetables were produced which he had exhibition. He could not then give them all the information they desired, but can sow show tha a catalogue, if they will call upon him. He is about to order, and any person wishing large or small quantities of seeds can have them at catalogae prioe money to ac company order. a a The regular meeting of the City Council took place on Monday evening, when there was a full a ttendanoe. Several accounts were examined and ordered to be paid. No busi ness of public interest was disposed of beyond the ordering of a few new crossings to be con structed end others to be repaired by the owners of the lots adjacent. The committee on Finances was empowered to negotiate a loan for payment of interest on City Park Ronds, due on the 1st April next The Coun cil adjourned for two weeks. By some inadvertence our memorandum of the result of the recent annual election of the L. E. & L. R., was mislaid, and we did not discover the omission. The directors chosen were L. Q. Rawson, R. P. Buckland, Gbas. T. Moore, of Fremont ; C. W. Foster, Charles Foster, Fostoria ; D. J. Corey, S. Carlin, Find lay ; C. S, Brice, Lima ; W. K. Smith, J. P. Grary, Union City, Ind.; and S Midbury, Columbus, O. At a subsequent meeting of the directors' L, Q. Rawson was chosen president ; Chas, Foster vice-president ; L. Q. Rawson, Chas. Fester, R. P. Backland, executive committee W. H. Andrews, secretary and treasurer ; I H. Burgoon, superintendent, and L. S. Ben. nett, chief engineer. We noticed the fact last week that the Light Guard Band had gone to Tiffin to assist the Harmonia Band of that place in a concert' at which they acquitted themselves creditablj' the Tiffin papers all paying them a deserved compliment. The following resolutions were adopted by the Harmonia Band : Resolved. That a vote of thanks be confer red upon the Light Guard Band of Fremont, for their courteous behavior and kind endea vors to assist us in our concert, by visiting the town and appearing in parade and balcony serenao.es. Resolved, also, That the Harmenia Band do unanimously join in complimenting the Light Guard Band upon their fine appearance ana upon tneir sxiu as musicians. Disappearance of a Citizen of Nor- walk. By a dispatch in the Cleveland Lea der we note the disipperance of Mr. Charles Bates, of Norwalk, a member of the firm of Parker, Mannahan & Taber. He had gone to Buffalo to attend to some business on the 13th, and cn Saturday the 14th. had gone to Niagara Falls, put up at a hotel, got his supper, after which he went out without his overcoat, and had not since been heard of. It is supposed be may have fallen from the banks, or been foully dealt with. He had intended being home on the 17th. His disappearance has caused much feeling in Norwalk, where he was highly respected. The manufacturers of the Patterson en gine have recently addressed a letter to the Mayor and Council of the City, urging upon them the propriety of giving them another trial, and claiming it as a right because of the accident which befel their engine when on trial heie. In the letter it is claimed they were not treated fairly, as their request to be allowed another trial was refused by the Com mittee. We do not understand such to have been the case. Sometime after the acci dent, the agent of the Patterson saw the com mittee, and asked to be allowed the privilege of a trial after making repairs. They at once conceded and said they would order the Clapp & Jones machine to stop until the Patterson could be got ready. This the Patterson agent objected to, but wished the Clapp & Jones machine to go on and finish the trial, and the Patterson would .throw against whatever record it made. As this was contrary to the agreement that the machines should work side by side for five hours, the committee re fused io allow it. We think it susceptible of proof that the Patterson could not have been repaired here, and especially so as no effort was made to put it in condition for service. The matter will probably come np for action at the next meeting of Council, but before any judgment should be arrived at on that subject Council should first determine whether the city shall or shall not have another engine. If it decides in favor, then let the Council invite a competitive trial of all that will attend, and purchase the best In proof of growing prosperity no better ev idence can be afforded than the amount of building going on in our midst Already are our builders busily engaged in the work of construction all over the city, and we are as sured that present prospects are moset encour aging. On Croghan street just beyond the R. R.traek, we notice Mr.P. Johnson is erecting a very neat story and a half frame residence for Mr. G. Cleghorn. Jacob Bletcher is also having a story and a half house erected for himself on Grant street. It will be remem bered Jake was burnt out on New Year's day. George Bixby, master builder, is erecting a very fine barn at Spiegel's Grove, opposite Ex-Gov. Hayes' property, for Mr. C. M. Bil lion, and we are creditably informed that Mr. P.Johnson will erect, this summer, in the same locality, a brick residence for Mr. D., which is to eclipse any residence of the kind in the city. Charles Hogonodel is also about to erect a two-story house near the Union School, in the first ward, and Joseph Schmo. low's two story brick house, on Garrison street beyond the R. R. track, is also to go up this Spring. The excavation for a foundation for new two-story residence, for Mr. W. Norris; has been made on State street, ths contract being entrusted to Mr. P. Johnson. We hear that Mrs. Fitz Morris is also about to have story and a half added to her bouse, on Na poleon street this Summer. Mr.Nonamosher. builder is about to construct a two-story resi dence near the Union School House,in the first ward, for Mr. Franz Zimmerman. It is under stood that Mr. John R. Gephart intends to erect a fine brick residence this Summer. There are several other frame and brick structures talked about, besides a host of ad ditions and improvements to existing resi dences. of in of a F. in The Relation of Good Men to the Evils of Intemperance. The duty of good citizens to the law of the land does not cease when they have scrupu lously obeyed the law. It is their duty by word and act to create an influence, a public sentiment, in favor of the observance and the faithful execution of all just and wholesome laws. It has always been true tbat the recog nized standard of action among any people, has always been in advance of the action of that people. It is also a fact At it is public opinion that enforces law. Hence in a com munity where public sentiment is opposed to a law, that law is generally regarded as a dead letter. It may be strictly enforced, and of great utility to the peace and order of so ciety in other communities, but in communi ties where public sentiment is opposed to it, this is the justification plead by, even the regularly constituted authorities, for allowing it to go unexecuted. Now, the question arises what is the duty of good men under such circumstances? Are they to allow the peace of society to go by de fault and disorder to prevail ? Or rather is it not the duty of every good man to exert him self to create a public sentiment in favor of law and order, and thereby secure tho peace, order and general welfare of the community ? We have a law on our statute books requir ing every citizen to close up his secular busi ness on the Sabbath day; and still anothex statute regulating the traffic in intoxicating liquors. It is an accepted fact that this latter is violated every day without fear of molesta tion and a known fact that the former is vio lated every Sabbath in the year, and, that oo, principally, almost solely, by the men engaged in the illegal traffic of intoxicating liquors. Nearly, if not every citizen engaged in legiti mate business out of respect for himself, for the religious sentiment of the community, the law of the land, and for the law of God closes up his business on the holy Sabbath. But men engaged in an unlawful traffic must be tolera ted in insulting the public conscience and set ting the law at defiance. Another fact to be taken into consideration here, is tbat this -"'legal traffic in intoxicating liquors is productive of more mischief to the community than any other one thig, perhaps, than all other sources of wrong-doing in the continuity. Now the question arises what is the duty of good men toward these evils? Is it quietly to submit to them, and allow the men engaged in them to go on and set the law and ths public con science at defiance? Or is it their duty tc offer to these men the resistance of the law, and de mand of them through the regularly consti tuted authorities that tbey desist from thoir illegal bu&iuess. But then we are told that public sentiment is with the evildoer. The friends of law and order are overpowered. in f That the liquor interests controls the munici pal authorities, that it controls the grand ju ries, and that it controls the courts. This may be a direct way of stating the matter, but we apprehend it about expresses the facta. Now, admitting all this to be true, then what be comes the duty of good civil citizens? Is it quietly to accept the situation and surrender the peace and safety of society to the disorder ly and lawless? If it is tree that public opin ion is all powerful, and exerts such a control ing influence, I suppose the question is as to who shall control publio opinion. Shall good men lay dormant and allow the vicious and lawless a monopoly of this thing? Or on the other hand is it not the duty of good men to exert all the influence they can command to create an influence in favor of morality, law an order? Does not the duty of the hour de mand that good men arise in the majesty of their strength and do this? I believe it to be the settled conviction in thi&jComnranity that good men are powerless in the presence of this evil. We concede entirely too much to the friends of the liquor traffic in this thin?. We grant them more influence than they are en titled to, and do ourselves a great injustice by this concession, There is influence enough among the sober civil citizens of the communi ty, if it is called out, to make themselves felt Good men have more power to create public sentiment than bad men have. The good men of the community have a great advantage in social positiion. In fact they have a monop.v ly of this, and it is a wonderful power. They control prrhaps four-fifths of the wealth of the community; and money is power. They con trol all the pure moral influences of society, and certainly they are no mean factor in this matter. The intelligence of the community is vastly on the side of intelligence and sobri ety. I can concieve of no respect in which the liquor interest has the advant age in the creation of public sentiment, only in its appeal to the low, depraved and vicious appetites of men. Now, shall good men, con scious of their strong social position, conscious of their abounding wealth, conscious of their vastly superior intelligence, conscious of the the right and justice of their cause, and strong in the consciousness of the approval of Heaven, allow these men, so vastly inferior in every possible respect, to manufacture public opinion, and thereby control all the constituted authorities of the community? We do our selves, as well as the public morals, a great in justice by such concessions. The trouble is the men who have power are toe indifferent to its exercise. A movement such as is on foot in the south ern part of the State might be inopportune at the present; but it certainly would not be out place for good men and women to organize for thejpurpose of creating a public sentiment favor of the peace and order of society.

This Is an inquiry which every one should have truthfully answered before he starts on his journey, and a little care taken in examination of routes will iu many cases save much trouble, time and money. The Chicago, Burlington and Qumcy Railroad has achieved a splendid reputation in the last three years as the leading Passenger Route to the West Starting at Chicago or Peoria, it rims direct through Southern Iowa and Nebraska, with close connec tions to California and the Territories. It is also the short line and beet line to Quincy Missouri, and points in Kansas and New Mexico. Passen gers on their way westward cannot do better than to take this route. This line has published a pamphlet entitled "Dow to eo West," which contains much valuable in formation; a large correct map of the Great West, which can be obtained free of charge by addressing the General Western Passenger Agent, Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad, Chicago, 111. It is Not Generally Known That the shortest possible route between the East and Great West is through St. Louis, over the St Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Line. This road has gained surprising importance by reason of immense expenditures in the last two years, of over two million dollars, besides earnings, in improvements of road-way, in relaying their line with best quality of new steel and iron rails, on broad new ties, and by substituting for ordinary cars,new reclining chair coachea,elegantly carpeted and fitted, with dressing rooms with toilet conven iences for ladies, gentlemen and families traveling with children, without any extra charge. This line runs six fast Xxpress trains between the Missis sippi and the Missouri Rivers, two more than any other road, and connects with all the great Land Grant Roads in the West, and has adopted all mod em appliances for comfort, speed and safeguards againBt accidents, including night and day watch men, who inspect the road before and aCtcr the passage of each train to see that everything is in order. We recommend those contemplating a trip West to take the St Louis, Kansas City and North- em Short Line, it being the only line running through cars between St. Louis and Omaha, and for tickets over this excellent line refer our readers to any ticket agent selling through tickets to the West For map, circulars and time tables address either Geo. D. Teller, Buffalo, N. Y.; or P. B. Groat, St Louis, Mo, cither of whom will uriah any information desired. Go West Through St. Louis. To all who are seeking new homes in or are about to take a trip to Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Nebraska, Oregon or California, we rec ommend a cheap, safe, quick and direct route by way of St Louis, ever the Missouri Pacific Through Line. It is equipped with fine Day Coaches, Buck's Reclining Chair Cars, Pullman's Palace Sleepers, the famous Miller Safety Platform, and the cele brated Westinghouse Air-Brake, and runs it trains from St Louis to all principal points in the West icithout change. We believe that the Missouri Pa cific Through Line has the best track of any road west of the Mississippi River, and with its superior equipment and unrivalled comforts for passengers, has become the great popular thoroughfare between the East and the West. Trains from the North, South and East connect at St. Louis with trains of the Missouri Pacific The -Texas connection of this road is now completed, and pass engers are offered a first-class all-rail route from St. Louis to Texas, either over the Missouri, Kansas & Texas R. .TL, via Sedalia, or over the Atlantic & Pacific R. R., via Vinita. For Maps, time tables, information as to rates, routes, &C, address S. H. Thompson, Eastern Passenger Agent, Union Depot, Columbus, Ohio, or E. A.

Businessmen sreoblige to advertise, but the method of doing it differs. Some nse society as an advertising medium, other adopt the imbibing method and produce wonderous results by warming beverages, another soil th fences and deface the beauty of natural scenery with his signs. One may build a church and proles piety, or make presents every time an account is paid, or sign every subscription and endorse every pro Sect whether wiseor unwise. Oiling the palms of officials is the common way of getting contracts and increasing business. Visiiinz fairs, blowing hard and manipulating committees is another branch. Keeping high toned clerks, softin manner and sott in brsin, is one way of advertising, but expensive. We condemn none of the above methods, and are willing tost every one shall do tbat irhicfa seenieUi right in their own mind. Fur onr part we prefer printer s ink, snd experience ha btngtit us that it is the lf.chttoestandiostbasiness like way of letting the people know that we hav the goods and dasiretheir trade.
